the sti's have a really good top end though, it will keep pulling up to the limiter fast.

Default Sort of. Do a search of the Performance Forum from ~10/01/2003 to 12/01/2003 for the 'what lead up

to it' posts.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/performance/msgs/60699.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/performance/msgs/60699.phtml</a</li></ul>

Default No I can't - I have the original "bent" actuator rod (more)

APR says I can't use the 93 or 100 programs until I upgrade the rod. Do you agree? Any advice? I have a friend that will download them for me, but APR said DEFINITELY do not do it.

Actually, he said I could run the 100 octane program in the winter with 93 octane gas.

Default At 110mph, we were at the top end in 2nd, 3rd, and 4th gears...

Think he would all of a sudden pass me once we were in fifth gear? Not.

Pre BC, I never had a problem running the new DBW actuator software on my old actuator.

Default That has pretty much always been APR's position ... Only run the 100 program with 100 fuel etc.

There is quite a change in timing on the race program(s)
